Can I still operate my vehicle safely with a malfunctioning turbocharger? I've been experiencing some decreased performance and strange noises, but I'm not sure if it's an urgent issue or if I can still make short trips. I'm concerned about the long-term implications and whether continuing to drive could exacerbate the problem or potentially damage other components. Is it advisable to take it to a mechanic immediately, or are there temporary measures I can take to ensure a safe journey? I'd appreciate any advice on how to handle this situation safely and effectively.

The turbocharger plays a crucial role in enhancing the engine's performance by compressing the intake air. When it malfunctions, it disrupts this process.
